Gameplay

While downgraded, the game is mostly the same as the original. The main new thing is that players can switch between their allies by tapping on their icon on the screen. The new maps rely a lot on this mechanic

New characters

Similar to the Wii U version, the game supports amiibo. However, each of Zelda series of amiibo gives weapons ranked 3 stars or higher specific to that character now with the Wolf Link amiibo giving weapons for both regular and Twili Midna. The rest of the amiibo unlock random materials, costumes for the fairies and such.
